Our Life

Our life-- 
in a poetic form 
follows 
certain rules, 

such as

the do’s 
and don’ts
of love,

and the color scheme, also, applies;

as Ernesto P. Santiago wrote that “in man's 
existence, the most essential thing is love, which 
often goes along with the essence of maturity, 

and it’s certainly best showed with 

infinite sweetness, 
the lushness of heart,
written in red, the color of blood, of which is life.”
